About the book: 1935 / The book describes the journey of a geological expedition of the All-Union Arctic Institute into the depths of the Anadyr tundra. The interaction of researchers with the local population is also described. The extreme northeast of the Asian continent is one of the most interesting polar regions of the Soviet Union. Here, in a relatively small area, there are boundless lowland tundra, inaccessible high mountain ranges, continental ice and the banks of high-water rivers covered with beautiful timber. There is no doubt that numerous and varied mineral wealth is hidden in the depths of this region. The tundra, mountains, rivers and seas that wash this country abound in valuable fur-bearing animals, huge herds of reindeer, a variety of fish and large marine animals.
